Biography:
Parquet Courts is a band from New York City. At the center of the group is A. Savage, who at this point is known for his collaborations with projects like Fergus & Geronimo, Teenage Cool Kids and Wiccans. Savage is joined by three other musicians (“three quarters Texans and three quarters Pisces”) and describes the bands’ debut release as THE FALL meets NEIL YOUNG. On the band’s debut release, “American Specialties”, this all makes sense.

[Verse]
A A
Your mind sings some lyrics like we're memory
A7 F#m
Your sad our goodbyes sound nostalgy
E E6
Your chords swung me from idolatry
D7 D7
I'm living like a vagabond, I just can't decide
A A
When to leave
A A
But it's roots are in the river to my mood it swings
A7 F#m
A vow even is impossible to keep
E E6
Every day is starting on the balance beam
D7 D7
Still you're standing with me, always carrying
A
The melody
G G
Smiling all the while, the paint chips off
G D A
Of my Mardi Gras beads

It's the images contained not the lens or frames
A7 F#m
Recalled to my mind before I fall asleep
E E6
A list of regrets is no place to be

I'm coming in late but I'll never modulate us
A A
To a minor key

Smiling all the while, the paint chips off
